BREVARD COUNTY • PALM BAY, FLORIDA – Judy Troche has always dreamed of fulfilling her husband’s vision of having a home that her family could call their own.

Upon hearing her story, Judy’s congregation at First Baptist Church of Melbourne, joined together with First United Methodist Church of Melbourne, St. Mark’s United Methodist Church, and the Presbyterian Church of the Good Shepherd to bring this dream to reality.

On Saturday, November 22, at 10 a.m., Habitat for Humanity of Brevard County will celebrate the wall-raising of a new build project at 1566 Reed Street NW in Palm Bay, with the Troche family.

The Troche family will purchase the Habitat house once it has been completed by the Habitat construction team and volunteers from the churches.

“All these steps are to make a better life for my family, and a habitat home is a part of that process. This is based on my husband’s dream for his family and making that dream come true” said Judy Troche.

“The church community has rallied to help this family and we are very excited to be a part of this process and help bring this family towards home ownership” said Andy Schirmacher Community Engagement Coordinator for Habitat for Humanity of Brevard County.
